Behaviour near lines

The Swissgrid grid consists of around 12,000 pylons and 6,700 kilometres of lines. Part of this crosses cultivated land or passes close to populated areas. Swissgrid’s grid infrastructure meets the highest safety standards. However, a few safety rules need to be observed during planning activities and work, as well as sports and leisure activities near lines.
